Grandma, you asked for the title of a book on Poland. I read a great novel by James Michener, titled "Poland". It was one of those long sweeping historical epic which covered eight centuries in the lives of Polish families from the ruling class down to the poor farmers. Michener wrote a series of historical novels, all of which I read while laid up with a broken knee cap, as my husband's nephew had collected them. The main other titles were "Afghanistan" and "Hawaii". I thought his "Poland" was one of the most stirring novels I have read, even superior to his other historical novels. It woke me up to the importance of Poland in history. We hear little about Poland's history in America, so this was new and exciting territory to me. It also gave a sense of the politics of the surrounding territories of Poland throughout these eight centuries, and of the treacherous "sell outs" of Poland by her neighbors.

According to polish version of "Grazia" the prince Lubomirski has split with his wife Dominika ( nee' Kulczyk). Yes, I know that in Poland we have no more any aristocracy but who knows.... one day it could be restored....

Ladislaus IV was King of Poland from 1632 to 1648.
He had also been elected Tsar of Russia in 1610.
However Ladislaus never ruled in Russia.
It is interesting that a sovereign can be chosen as a monarch for a country but never rule in that particular country.

Yes. A lot. Photos, family trees, oral history - which will be written. It is time for the Polish Royals to stand up, not to take any kind of power, but to do all that can be done to avoid war on planet earth. God knows we know enough about war, and the affects of it on those who endured it, and their descendants
